Where this law is in force, it is hostile, in this case, against the Russian state. You like to speal about the American law sometimes, don't lie to people, it's a bad behavior, said the Chairman of the "National Movement", Levan Khabeishvili.
According to him, "the most serious problem is when we talk about the fact that Ivanishvili's government might become an obstacle on the way to the European Union."
"We all understand very well the reaction of our Western partners that the status of the candidate may be called into question. Georgia's accession to the European Union may be called into question after the adoption of this law. Obviously, this will harm the state interests of Georgia. The interest of the Georgian people, the future. Therefore, the most serious problem is when we talk about the fact that Ivanishvili's government might become an obstacle on the way to the European Union.
Come on, don't lie to the public. Where this law is in force, it is hostile, in this case, against the Russian state. You like to speak about American law sometimes, don't lie to people, it's bad behavior. Don't be a participant in what is a problem in our country's European path", Khabeishvili said.
In addition to this topic, Khabeishvili responded to the statement of Matthew Miller, the spokesperson of the State Department, noting that his words were "strict and clear".
"It was a very strong and clear statement indicating that yes, maybe the members of the majority would have to sanction it." But we should also understand that this will not be a solution for the Georgian people. The solution is not to adopt this law and to change this government. Even if they take this law back now and we don't change the government, they can turn it back in two months", Khabeishvili said.
For information, according to the press spokesman of the United States State Department, Matthew Miller, if Georgia adopts the law "On transparency of foreign influence", it will harm civil society organizations and divert the country from the European path.
To the question: "Last year, you clearly stated that if any deputy supported the draft law, it would be ratified." Why are you refraining from sending such a message now?” Miller replied: “We're making it clear that we are concerned about this bill. As for what we might do if it moves forward, stay tuned. I can't announce anything today," said Miller.
